Small Computer Systems Interface protocol over the Internet Requirements and Design Considerations
RFC 3347, “Small Computer Systems Interface protocol over the Internet Requirements and Design Considerations”, is a Proposed Standard document published in July 2002 by M. Krueger, R. Haagens. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
The IP Storage Working group is chartered with developing comprehensive technology to transport block storage data over IP protocols. This effort includes a protocol to transport the Small Computer Systems Interface (SCSI) protocol over the Internet (iSCSI). The initial version of the iSCSI protocol will define a mapping of SCSI transport protocol over TCP/IP so that SCSI storage controllers (principally disk and tape arrays and libraries) can be attached to IP networks, notably Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) and 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10 GbE).
What “Proposed Standard” means
An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
